Changes in the Eye Microbiota Associated with Contact Lens Wearing
UNLABELLED Wearing contact lenses has been identified as a risk factor for the development of eye conditions such as giant papillary conjunctivitis and keratitis. We hypothesized that wearing contact lenses is associated with changes in the ocular microbiota. We compared the bacterial communities of the conjunctiva and skin under the eye from 58 subjects and analyzed samples from 20 subjects (9...
متن کاملcorneal thickness changes after soft contact lens removal
purpose: to evaluate corneal thickness changes after soft contact lens (scl) removal in lasik candidates. methods: fifty lasik candidates (100 eyes) with history of daily wear scl for at least 6 months were enrolled in this descriptive study. central corneal thickness was measured by ultrasonic pachymetry immediately after lens removal and then repeated daily at the same time, until the thickne...
متن کاملComplications caused by contact lens wearing.
Complications in wearing contact lenses are very rare and caused by poor maintenance, over-extended wear and wearing of contact lenses in a polluted environment. Regular control by a professional person can efficiently reduce the number of complications. This paper describes the most common risks factors for complications, and complications of wearing contact lenses with the classification acco...
متن کاملContact lens induced keratitis associated with contact lens wear.
PURPOSE To evaluate clinical characteristics, risk factors, management and outcome of contact lens induced keratitis (CLIK) associated with contact lens wear. METHODS The study comprised all consecutive patients presenting with contact lens related presumed microbial keratitis during a 12-month period at our department. Detailed demographic data, type of contact lens, duration of lens wear, w...
متن کاملCorneal Biomechanical Changes Following Toric Soft Contact Lens Wear
PURPOSE To determine the effect of using toric soft contact lenses on corneal biomechanical properties. METHODS We enrolled 33 healthy patients with mean age of 23.18 ± 4.06 and minimal cylinder power of 1 D (-1.98 ± 0.808 SD) and negative history of contact lens use; keratoconic patients were excluded from the study. Toric soft contact lenses (BIOFINITY, Comfilcon A, Coopervision, Southampto...
